Spring 2019

After getting home from Townsville there were just a couple of months before we were heading home to Canada for Christmas!  Here is a photo catch-up of some things that went on...

Our branch did a trunk-or-treat for Halloween and Elly and I were matching black cats!

These girls love to dress up and be matching!

Elly wants a pet so bad!  Our friends brought their dog over for a little visit

Charlie and I went to get our pictures taken for our Australian citizenship application, and went on a little date afterwards!

Charlie and Elly wanted me to take this picture and send it to Daddy

Toy library!

Elly sis her own makeup...

Townsville Trip

For the September school holidays Andrew had a course going on in Townsville, so we made it a family holiday!  Charlie and Elly are a dream to travel with, Hazel... not so much.  If only she liked watching shows for more than 5 minutes!  (I never thought I'd want my kid to be obsessed with shows - but only on vacation!)  We had a great time, the highlight (once again) being Crystal Creek.  We had such nice weather and the water levels were perfect!  We also took advantage of fun things that were going on for the school holidays at the Museum and malls.

This is the coolest tree that we stop at on the way to Townsville - it's got a huge canopy with open space underneath (you can't really tell from the picture, but we love it and if you had it in your yard you could have the coolest fort!)

Where they put us up during Andrews course!

We stayed at the Big4 when the course wasn't on

No trip to Townsville is complete without a visit to Chipmunks!

The Strand

Food was the best entertainment on the drive!
